I am experienced in working with autistic, ADHD, neurodivergent and highly sensitive people.
We all experience times when things aren't going the way we might like. We can find ourselves anywhere from a bit grey and unhappy to extremely dark and depressed, overwhelmed, stressed and spun out. We can get stuck in negative patterns of thinking which are difficult to break, become worried or anxious about the future, or unable to reconcile past decisions. A neutral space to think and feel can be extremely useful. People come to counselling for a variety of reasons; it may be that you would like to:
· Develop better self awareness.
· Work through a loss, bereavement, relationship break-up, or redundancy.
· Increase your confidence, self-esteem or self-image.
· Work on patterns of behaviour that may be causing you concern.
· Discuss feelings of depression, anxiety, sadness, loneliness or emptiness.
· Find more of a sense of purpose in life, to feel less stuck.
· Try and resolve some issues from the past.
· Feel more comfortable expressing your sexuality.
· Work through a situation currently affecting your work life.
· Develop a better understanding of your relationship issues.
· Be able to resolve a family conflict.
· Talk about something you have been bottling up.
· Work on social skills to connect with people and make lasting relationships.
· Develop better communication skills & become more assertive.
· Develop better understanding of your partner & yourself.
Counselling offers a safe, confidential, non-judgmental and accepting space to think and talk about yourself, your experience, and your life. It can help you to make any changes that you would like to happen. Counselling may also be able to offer insights and help you to work on patterns of behaviour in a safe and confidential space. Counselling can help people to discuss their feelings openly and honestly.
I am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I maintain my expertise through a minimum of 30 hours of continuing professional development annually. Recent Continuing Professional Development (CPD) includes a 25 hour Trauma Informed Course. I tend to always exceed my professional body's 30 hour guidance for continuing professional development because of my passion for my work and for learning. My background includes voluntary work with an autism charity, working as a counselling tutor and for a leading counselling awarding body, and a leadership role in hospice counselling and bereavement services.
My practice is grounded in Person Centred Theory, empowering clients to find their own solutions. I incorporate creative and visual techniques, as well as psycho education, tailoring my approach to each individual's needs. My qualifications include a MA in Counselling and Psychotherapy Practice, CPCAB Level 6 Certificate in Therapeutic Counselling Supervision, CPCAB Level 5 Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling, and CPCAB Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, as well as a teaching qualification.
I offer a half price introductory 50 minute Zoom or telephone session charged at £35 to help determine if we are a good fit to work together. Please email me if you would like to book one of these at: emmawestoncounselling@proton.me Please note that all my work is online and I use Zoom for counselling and supervision sessions.
